FEBRUARY 2025
Mars is still in retrograde motion. He travels from 20-17 degrees of Cancer until February 23 when he stops and goes forward. You will be dealing with home and family issues, often more with more emotion than you like. Jupiter, who has been retrograde since early October, changes direction on February 4. He gives you more freedom to think and to travel. It’s a stay-the-course kind of month. Enjoy the relative calm.
